He quotes the elty charter to prove that the council has not even = shadow of right to grant Heenses to diver such as those conducted in this city under the mask of variety theaters, His point is well taken and should be suc~ eonafully urged. If the council persists in vielating. the charter, the courts are still open. ‘The attitude of the council on the dance hail question does not look good. As the Star has intimated in ite news columns, there has been a suspicious change of heart on the part of some of the members, ‘The matter ie one that will bear watching. The business men and etub women who petitioned for the cleansing of the old tendertoin dis- trict. should have thetr representatives In the council lobby at every meeting untit the matter is settied. Surreptitious action on « quiet night can thus be forestalied. As public servants, the members of the council will de well to re- member that but three representative business houses signed the peti- tion to relicense the dance hall —and two of these were wholesale liquor firma. ' Hf the councilmen grant the licenses, they know they will act against the wishes of 90 per cent. of the citizens whose demands they ere sworn ‘te obey. METHODS OF COAL ‘The vublte’ hee dering the pnet TRUS VEALED year learned a great deal about the me cont trusts of the United States, And the know'e@ge t# bearing fruit, The state of Iiinols has interfered with praiseworthy promptitude to prevent the Chicago coal trust from longer robbing the people of the Windy City. Rven the anthracite octopus might learn a thing or two from the canal barons of Chicago. No better objet lesson in trust methods has yet been given the thinking public then that brought out at the Chicago coal famine Mmyestigation. The testimony developed the fact that the coal deaters and the rallweys have been working in combination. The rafiroads have been allowing the dealers to use their side tracks for the storage of cars of coal, charging only a nominal demurrage. The I1ll- nolg Central alone at one time had a month's supply for the entire city im ite yards awatting release by the dealere, while thousands were suf- fering. even dying. from cold. ‘The firet result of the investigation was a promiss from that railroad company to clear its yards of coal ars forthwith, But the fight has not yet been ended. The attornéy general of the state says he will at once Mile etilte against the coal deniers and the raliroads, charging them with conspiracy and effectually break ap their combine. ‘The best wishes of all except the trust magnates are with him. —_— VISITORS AR Justice Graves, of Wisconsin, has given a hard Knock against that good old adage which says that blood ts thicker than water. Mr. and Mrs. Sax of Milwaukee brought suit before Justice Graves agninat two of their second cousins named Vogel, who came upon them for @ friendly visit and remained with them five weeks. The Saxes sued the Vogels for $55 for board, Justice Graves heid that the claim was just and the Vogels had to pay. t Tt wae of no avail that the Vogels pleaded reiationship. Futile was their plea that they did not agree to pay board. Equally unavailing was the fact that the Saxes had urged the Vogels to stay It is proverbially an inhompitable age, but it would seem that Invited guests must still have some rights, in law {f not in etiquette. But Jus- tice Graves, who has evidently had experience himself, is of the opinion that the perfunctory “Stay longer--do” must not be taken too seriousty, Politeneas is one thing, and provisions at trust prices are quite another. If the precedent entablished by this judge is to become general law it munt behoove ali persons contemplating a visit to demand that a re- ceipted board bill be forwarded with the invitation.
